About me
Throughout my life I have always engaged creatively, after I finished at the northern film school, it made sense for me to go into the making of films and similar media. The past few years at film school have been great for learning how to use equipment and meeting new people but I don't think I was giving the chance to really show people what I'm capable of. Short films (the deal/homegrown), TV shows (Missing the Point: made in leeds), documentaries (the tramway): I've had a wide experience in making productions and would like to dive into the bigger picture. Even though having this experience, I still feel like i need to progress and keep learning for my skills to improve and develop. I have a particular interest in boom operating in dramas, as the boom operator captures the characters voices as they should be heard in the context of the story.Apart from boom operating I have experience in sound design, foley art and mixing as well. Sound design, foley art and boom operating are the main skills that i've been trying to improve in the last three years. These areas seem the most satisfying and yet the most interesting to what I think my future has to behold.
